As my good friend pointed out – Rahul
Garg, the BizTalk 2009 documentation is available for public download.
Things such as:
- runtime engine
- mapping
- Orchestrations
- Adapter V1.0 Frameworks
- BizTalk Applications
- BizTalk Deployment of Applications
Have all generally (obvious fixes and improvements as needed) stayed the same.
Whereas, a quick summary of things I’d be looking for in the documentation:
-
Incorporating BizTalk Project builds into automated tested suites (TFS etc) – Biztalk
2009 projects can now be built through MSBUILD as a regular project in the solution. -
Individual components such as Schemas and Maps can be formally unit tested (previously
we wrote our own helper classes to make this stuff happen) – although, at the moment
when testing a schema, I haven’t been getting back details of the error…just a pass/fail. -
BizTalk Adapter Pack 2.0 (Sql, Oracle x 2, SAP, Siebel…) – based on WCF channel
stack…very nice! (can be standalone if needed) - WS Federated bindings
- and the list goes on…..
